John B. Woodruff saw one of the so called "flying disks" or other object on 10 July, at approximately 1700. We were coming back from a fishing trip, and coming over the hill between here and Stephenville Crossing you can see the cloud formation ahead, I saw the object break out where the clouds opened and it left its trail behind it. It was very clear and the clouds were very scattered. I'd say the approximately altitude of the clouds was from 8000 to 10,000 feet. The object appeared to be a translucent disk like a wheel travelling at a terrific rate of speed and opened the clouds as it went through the air. The disk was travelling horizontal. It appeared to be about the size of a 54 or Constellation. It spread the clouds out about half mile. It cut a clear path right through the cloud. It left a trail dark blueish in color similar to a high power light. The trail was approximately 15 to 20 miles long.
